Interventions
Ziv-Aflibercept is an investigational or experimental anti-cancer agent inactivates vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) from functioning and scientific experiments have shown that when VEGF is prevented from working, new blood vessels don't form in tumors and these tumors do not grow. In addition, VEGF has been shown to have a negative effect on the immune response and blocking it may help the immune response against cancer.
Cemiplimab is a human monoclonal anti-PD-1 antibody that works by blocking the programmed death-1 (PD-1), a cell receptor on immune cells that is involved in preventing immune cells from destroying other cells. Blocking the receptor is expected to help immune cells attack cancer cells.
